Peirce’s 1885 “Algebra of Logic” • Discussion 2

Re: FB | Daniel Everett One thing I’ve been trying to understand for a very long time is the changes in Peirce’s writing about math and logic from 1865 to 1885.  If there’s anything I’ve learned from reading Peirce in … Continue reading

Survey of Relation Theory • 8

In the present Survey of blog and wiki resources for Relation Theory, relations are viewed from the perspective of combinatorics, in other words, as a topic in discrete mathematics, with special attention to finite structures and concrete set‑theoretic constructions, many … Continue reading

Relation Theory • Discussion 5

Re: Survey of Relation Theory Re: Ontolog Forum • Ravi Sharma RS: Is there also an attempt at integrating these relation concepts?  Like a meta‑model of relations? Dear Ravi, I haven’t run across the concept of a meta‑model before so … Continue reading
